Tips:

  • To make the graham cracker crust, you can use either a food processor or a rolling pin. If you are using a food processor, pulse the graham crackers until they are fine crumbs. If you are using a rolling pin, place the graham crackers in a plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin until they are fine crumbs.
  • When melting the butter for the graham cracker crust, be sure to melt it until it is smooth and liquid. This will help the crust to hold together.
  • When pressing the graham cracker crust into the pan, be sure to press it firmly and evenly. This will help the crust to be sturdy and not crumble.
  • For the banana filling, be sure to use ripe bananas. Ripe bananas are sweeter and have a creamier texture.
  • When slicing the bananas, be sure to slice them evenly. This will help the bananas to cook evenly.
  • When making the pudding mixture, be sure to whisk the pudding mix and milk together until the pudding is smooth and thick. This will help to prevent lumps in the pudding.
  • When pouring the pudding mixture over the bananas, be sure to pour it evenly. This will help the pudding to set evenly.
  • When refrigerating the dessert, be sure to cover it tightly with plastic wrap. This will help to prevent the dessert from drying out.
